mohamed mursi. the first de.icily elected president in egypt. he said that he would defend the country. and would wear it for a brighter future. this is a man who faces a set of unprecedented challenges as we see. egypt's former army chief abdul fatah al-sisi had the pinnacle of power in the most populous country in the ar app world. this is the moment his supporters have been waiting for. >> i swear by god that i should loyally preserve the constitution of the public. i shall preserve the peep's interest and maintain security and independence of the nature. >> the former president will pose with pictures of the constitutional court. one of the leading judges describes abdul fatah al-sisi as the man who saved the nation for what he called the tyranny of

on track. the biggest problem will be to reach out to pro-mohamed mursi supporters and supporters of the banned muslim brotherhood and cop fins them that despite what happened about a rear ago he was genuine about moving toot and rallying public support. >> hashim, how can he convince the united states that egypt will be democratic in. >> well, he sat in a meeting with egyptian journalists that he thinks that democracy in egypt has to wait for decades and that his top priority for the time being is to work on stability and violence in the country. this is very alarming for activists on the ground. it could be used as an excuse. this is the same problem that the united states of america

will faus in the future dealing with the new president of egypt abdul fatah al-sisi. it will be seen by the opposition and activists as southernly, not looking into the real issues for the sake of its own interest, and for the americans to wait for some time to see what kind of response it will have to give to the new government. it will be seen as wasting a lot of time. this will be a delicate balancing act for the united states of mebbing. we have to take this into the conflict of the pro-demack ratty movement. the crit stix directed against the arab states of america. americans look into their interests in the region, irrespective of its power, and it is something that they have to fix now. >> hashem ahelbarra, thank you for being with us this morning.

welcome back to al jazeera america. live from new york city. i'm morgan radford and these are the top stories. a new president in egypt. the country's former military chief abdul fatah al-sisi is officially sworn in. he promised justice and security after winning 97% of the vote in last year's elections. flash floods killed 70 in afghanistan. hundreds of homes have been washed away in the most. today marks three months since the missing malaysian jetliner vanished into thin air. several families frustrated by lack of answers are taking marts into their own hands, starting a multi million dollar fund. pope francis is leading an historic prayer at the vatican where he'll be joined by mahmoud

abbas as well as israeli president shimon peres. it follows a middle east tour where he invited the lead erts to the vatican, and he found nick spicer. >> good morning, and thank you for being with us. vatican officials insist there's no political agenda. what is it expected to accomplish. >> you're rite to the extent that the prime minister of the rail binyamin netanyahu, who is really the decision-maker on the israeli side when it comes to peace process is not prement. there's not a lot of politics taking place here. there's a lot of symbolism that the pope hopes will be useful. he tweeted before the meeting that prayer is powerful. and the vatican spokesperson said that the idea is to give people hope in the idea of peace once again. so the bringing together of the

palestine and israeli presidents is really something that the pope decided to do six to bring the pope back to the holy land, including a lot of christians. there'll be some christian holy text read today. obviously the pope will take part and leading the ceremonies, and it's part and parcel with the pope's parliamentary, which is somewhat impulsive. he came up with an idea, after visiting bethlehem and touching the separation wall, sl received by the plps. tweet by the pope. nick spicer and vatican city. to egypt where a political chapter begins. abdul fatah al-sisi took oath. bernard smith takes a look at a man that leads a fractured egypt

for four years. >> i am abdul fatah al-sisi, an egyptian citizens. i love my country and my own people. i want to serve with them. and to ensure democracy and freedom, rule of law, and bitterness. abdul fatah al-sisi has come a long way in less than 12 months. as large scale demonstrations against mohamed mursi clogged central cairo on 1 july. the head of the military delivered an ultimatum to the egyptian president. negotiate with your opponents or the army will intervene, abdul fatah al-sisi warned. two days later abdul fatah al-sisi led the coup that deposed mohamed mursi. it launched abdul fatah al-sisi

to the presidency. a year earlier mohamed mursi had given abdul fatah al-sisi the top military job. the president must have thought he was ppting an ally. abdul fatah al-sisi was to have mohamed mursi locked up. he presided over a ruthless and bloody crack done. >> we call for legitimacy. this is our point of view. that's why they are killing us. abdul fatah al-sisi did it seemingly with considerable popular support. the general was beginning to attract something of a cult following. abdul fatah al-sisi rode a wave of nationalism. he hasn't discouraged comparisons with nasser who ruled egypt from 1956 to 1970. nasser was popular and described as the first leader of an arab nation to challenge dominance.

abdul fatah al-sisi is known as being devote. he hasn't expressed an opinion. in a speech to the military he said religious discourse is the greatest battle and challenge facing the egip shan people. there's a need for vision and comprehensive decision in the religion offest lamb. >> reporter: abdul fatah al-sisi knows that he needs to turn the economy around first. >> egyptians wnt to love freedom and justice. i need to give them security, stability and development. abdul fatah al-sisi says that within two years he can improve the economic condition of the egyptian people. he'll need to retainular support if -- retain popular support if he's to achieve a political goal. >> joining us to discuss the new

egyptian president is professor richard, professor at columbian university. >> what does the future look luke for egypt with abdul fatah al-sisi as president. >> the future looks like the past. 60ors of military authoritarian rule will continue. the main difference is that in the past you did not have the money from saudi arabia and the gulf flowing in in the tens of billions of dollars. >> that you have now. >> that you have now. >> abdul fatah al-sisi has taken over to turn egypt into much of what it has been. >> won't it be different with the money involved. >> if the saudis and the gulfies are willing to endlessly support the egyptian economy there'll be difference. the amount of money they can give compared with the economic revitalizition that is needed is

not adequate. it means that saudi arabia has leverage we do not. >> what circumstances. you mentioned the endlessly funded egypt. what circumstances require them to pull out the money? >> i think that any letting up of the pressure on the muslim brotherhood would be disapproved of by the saudi arabias. the reason saudi arabia supported, if not instigated the coup against mohamed mursi was that they did not want any competitor in the arab world for the leadership in religious terms of the muslim community. outside of the arab world what could an abdul fatah al-sisi presidency many for europe. >> it will be to maintained a peaceful frontier for egyptians. beyond that u.s. interest could be to have liberalization of the

egyptian political arena. that will not happen. you don't think it will happen. the new electoral law makes it almost impossible tore any party other than those supporting abdul fatah al-sisi to achieve office in the parliament. it is a law that is, you know, very liberal and in addition you have the outlawing of the most popular political organization in the country. >> how did he manage to get 97% of the vote. 97% of the 47% of the electorate that voted. >> that turned up to the poll. >> there was no significant spoigs. it was a one man vote. >> does it range serious question, the fact that this election was extended? >> i think there is an effort to get larger percentage to come out. >> more than the 47 per cent.

>> it got up to 47 per crept. it was a week electoral showing, and the people ta observed it felt it was uncorrupted. it doesn't make a difference. nobody thought that there was going to be a free election. nobody thought that there was going to be an open contest for president. since the coup, the military has controlled everything. and there is no likelihood that that will change in the future. >> you think if more people come out it will not make a difference. you don't think it will have a department. >> i don't think a new election would be held under circumstances that would allow a significant opposition to gain a voice. let's talk about iranian president hassan rouhani. he was invited to the swearing in ceremony. what do you think? >> it would be absurd for him to accept the invitation since the foreign minister, mr zar if just

turned down an invitation to go to saudi arabia. if the foreign minister is not going to saudi arabia to talk to the group that is - the government that is strong and supportive. it would be absurd for the president to go to egypt. besides which the iranians have great credibility for the palestinian cause, to go to egypt where abdul fatah al-sisi said nothing that would indicate for support the cause. >> you think it was wearing its street cred. >> thank you. >> a pakistani teen survived an honour killing speaking out. the 18-year-old was shot and thrown into a canal. she angered her family by marrying against her wishes.

>> i'm not getting work often and where i was staying there's problems with water. >> there are illegal slums like this in many indian cities, struggling to keep up with basic services, having to use temporary measures on a long-term basis. after decades little has changed. >> i live in a makeshift home. we have to get water from a well. the power comes on for two hours and goes off. it's been like this since i moved here since i was 10. >> better classed migrants add to the strap, overloading basic infrastructure. migrants keep arriving and add to the traffic and congestion, putting a strain on utilities. the same migrants are needed to keep the economy going. new delhi relies on the workers. even while it struggles to

provide for them. >> it ends up as a fire-fighting exercise. it's a problem-solving exercise. >> planning happens formally to a central structure and informally to adapt a growing infrastructure to semilegal settlements. we find about seven or eight types of settlement out of which two or three formal planned settlements. it's a different type of these types of settlements. >> as more migrants arrive, more slums to accommodate them are changing the face of the city that they call home. coming up in the next hour the final instalment of a four-part series urban pressure. we look at london and why experts warn of a danger of

becoming a city. f.a.r.c. declares a 3-week crease fire ahead of elections, coming ahead of an earlier decision to set up a truth commission. the body will investigate the death of thousands of people over the past five decades of conflict. both sides are meeting for a new round of peace talks, that could signal the end of the latin america's oldest war. more than 2-00,000 -- 200,000 died since the fighting began. >> pastors are promising miracles that they can't deliver in exchange for money. it's happening in mega churches in africa. police are finally cracking down. >> reporter: meet the international ministry and 36-year-old superstar bishop. he's known as a miracle worker.

many say this is why. it takes one of the blessings heeled of disease. plenty of people believe in him. like mary, who is here because she is getting difficulties getting pregnant. >>. >> translation: he is amazing. he helped so many people. i believe in his power. >> sermons are on the internet and relaid across the country. 50 staff including a ban works for him. >> if you help a person, someone will help you. if i heel peep. they will help me and my staff. after he insulted a rainbow journalist questioning his ability to perform miracles. he asked his followers to make donations. he unexpectedly offered free

consultations, perhaps because i'm filming. >> the survey has been going on for several horse. people will not leave the security until the preacher has left. that will not happen until nightfall. preachers here have enormous amounts of power, influence and funny. too much so say the police who were clamping down on fake preparers. duping people for money. >> it's big business, we have been arresting them on a weekly basis. we treat them as individuals who committed a crime. >> if found guilty preachers face up to 10 years in prison. despite allegations they are not worried. the church is thriving. his followers believe this in itself is a miracle.

>> some of the pastors in ghana operate dozens of churches. many have been seen around the communities wearing designer clothes and driving flashy cars. the scales of justice rely on eyewitness testimony. in the american legal system the witness - well, sometimes they get it wrong. this week's testimony of "the system" shows how bad evidence can tip the scales. >> a shocking number of eyewitnesss can get it wrong. >> at a location two gentlemen went in to purchase drugs, a gunfire enshooed. a resident was kill. when the police arrived they were looking for suspects, one tall, one short. >> reporter: how accurate are eyewitness investigations? >> studying witnesses in the research lab and in the real world. 30% of the time, witnesses who

pick someone and say yes, that's the person who committed the crime. >> what jennifer and others believe is that the majority is outmoded. >> they put me in front of a big glass window. handcuffed me to the bench. everyone in the room was pushed on the other side where they see the individuals, just me. >> you can watch the full episode at 9:00 pm, 6:00 pacific here. >> the art of conservation. we'll introduce you to a photographer whose work can save one of america's famous. >> rain in the storms. areas tracked that could see tornados today. vé

live from doha. >> what exactly is abdul fatah al-sisi promising for his people, now that he's president? >> basically he said that he's committed to building a strong, powerful egypt, an egypt that will prosper in the future. this is one that has been criticised in the past for talking in vague terms. he never says how he's planning to fix the rising unemployment or the subsidies in basic projects and fuel, which are biting deep into the country's defined -- dwindling financial reserves. >> speaking of that, the u.s. sent a delegation to attend his inauguration, as did several other nations. what can you tell us about the countries excluded from the invite. >> you're talking basically about qatar and turkey. and relations between qatar,

turkey and egypt over the last fu months have been strained, since jowell 2013, when abdul fatah al-sisi was then minister of defence, toppling mohamed mursi. egypt has been saying turkey and qatar are destabilizing the country by providing assistance for the muslim brotherhood, which is considered a terrorist organization. by the new government. by the new government in egypt. relations are strained and both countries have been seen to be behind ladies and gentlemen massy. >> even though those -- legitimacy. >> even though relations are strained you mentionedway abdul fatah al-sisi promises to do, but what are the challenges he is going to face in the days ahead. >> the biggest challenge that he

faces now is to unite the country. he's seen as a polarizing figure. supporters consider him a saviour. you have supporters of the muslim brotherhood, and activists would say that this is a man who is dragging the nation into full court - into a police state. he is someone who has usurped power and has to solve the problem of legitimacy. the second biggest issue is an economy in tatters, to implement reforms they have been promising his open people. we are talking about hundreds of billions that they need to build a robust economy. this is a country that doesn't have huge resources. he will depend on donations and assistance from wealthy nations like saudi arabia, and they will commit to providing more cash.

this is the question that we have to wait and see what happens in the future. >> quickly, before we go, what is the administration saying to the people who say "look, this election was just a joke", you only had about 46 people showing up bit of that you have 96% of the vote. what do you say. what does the administration say to the people who say that the election was a farce? >> well, they say this is all the same rhetoric used by muslim brotherhood or troughists. this is a term used from time to time. they don't admit that the turn out was well below the 2012 turn out that saw mohamed mursi come to power. they say that this is someone who provided an unprecedented wave of popularity. he's seen as a founding father, as a man who is going to steer the country out of trouble.

and build a genuine democracy, a power of the egypt. at the same time we have people saying that egypt under-abdul fatah al-sisi is a backlash on the pr democracy movement engolfing the area ab world and -- arab world and the future will be bleaker. critical time ahead for egypt. critical moment ahead for abdul fatah al-sisi. >> critical and very politically interesti interesting. thank you so much for being with us high stake talks to begin in geneva, where iran's nuclear programme will be discussed. they have a month to meet a deadline. it will vav deputy secretary of

taken a number of university staff and students hostage. they werersled and the i -- were released and the i.s.i.l. fighters disappeared into the rear of ramadi town. now this, a hit and run convoy. seems there's a continuing push into ramadi. while that happens there's a push into kurdish areas, smim autonomous regions. people are saying we need to gented our people in these -- defend our people in these places on the border. that is what i.s.i.l. forces said. that they want to join the kurdish into the fight. you have all of this stuff, and several attacks taking place in baghdad on saturday night, killing 52, injuring 110. >> imran khan reporting from baghdad. a pakistani teen that survived an honour killing is speaking out. an 18-year-old was shot and

thrown into a canal by her own relatives. she angered her family by marrying against her wishes. the team wanted to get help but said she feared for her life. >> striking workers faced the music. the labour corp ruled if the action was legal. workers demanding higher wages brought the city to a stand still. the company that runs sao paulo says it is normal. >> commuters locked out of metro stations as some workers are on strike, no trains running on the tracks, leaving people without a way to get to a job downtown. >> this is very bad, very bad. it's an injustice for all of us that use the metro to get to work. >> she is not alone. >> i'm trying to get to work now. now i have to try to get to

of football fans are expected. they'll arrive via met ror or train. the station is across the street. it means this metro workers strike is going on, it means chaos for the fans arriving here. it appears unlikely it will get to that point. as both sides sit with a mediator to hash out a compromise. with every dayst in the resolved, it's a day closer to the football spectacular turning into a transport nightmare. hundreds of thousands of tourists are expected in brazil for the rup wr, the first match is thursday. more than 300 boys and girls are expected to ask in a makeshift rev gee camp. it's a border patrol region, but it's used as a temporary clinic

get into the overnight hours. the cluster of tornados reported around st. louis. this is a cloud that a number of witnesses saw and video tape. it doesn't look like it made contact with the ground making it a tornado , but the national weather service will be busy surveying the areas to see what damage there was. just outside of st. louis, there were a numberful tornados reported. today we are expecting to see a few storms redeveloping around st. louis. the threat shifted further south over michael oku and texas, spreading -- oklahoma and texas. over the next couple of days, heavier rain fall leading to the threat of flash flooding. pope francis leads an historic mid-aged prayer meeting where he'll be joined by palestinian president mahmoud abbas and israeli president

session. prayers will be read from the christian, islamic and jewish holy books. there'll be a planting of an olive tree, a shaking of hands, no negotiations of any time, a private chat between the pope and the president. the hope overall being that this will help people have hope in the idea of peace itself. >> okay. but despite that notion of hope, is there any concern that the vatican is mixing church and state with the trip? >> i'm sorry, can you repeat the question? >> absolutely. is there any concern here that the vatican is mixing church and state with the trip? >> no, not that i've heard. certainly there was a feeling during his recent trip to the

holy land that he reached out to the palestinians in a way that had not been done recently by a pope, by visiting bethlehem, by not going into the west bank through israel, by going through another route. putting his hand on the separation barrier built up by israel. the palestinians veldt that those were -- felt that those were strong guestures, that the ploight was recognised. the situation in the middle east, the lack of piece, is unacceptable. he has big fans in palestine if you will. the vatican underlined it's not about politics, they are not going to get into the nitty gritry about settlements and the right of return. this is about changing the mood music. and bringing people of the holly land toot. to remind them of religious fate and a message of peace.

welcome back to al jazeera america. i'm morgan radford and i'm so

happy to be with you this morning. these are the top stories. a new president in egypt. the country's former military chief abdul fatah al-sisi is officially sworn in. in his inauguration he promised justice and security, winning 97% of the vote in the election. an historic summit at the vatican, where pope francis leads shimon peres and mahmoud abbas in a peace prayer. they are insisting there's no political agenda behind the invitation. army sergeant bowe bergdahl reportedly says he was tortured after being captured in afghanistan. he was released by the taliban in exchange for five taliban detainees held at guantanamo bay. >> most realtors say the american housing market is on the mend. at least one demographic might disagree. we have a report on why millennials are falling short of

the american dream. >> reporter: hand in hand markus and his wife enjoy strolls in the neighbourhood. this 4-bedroom residence in bedford, texas is their dream home. this one-bed room apartment across the street is their reality. >> if we could afford to move to the house tomorrow i would. >> markus doesn't see how he and his family can move past apartment living. student loans, not stellar credit and tight standards are factor which he says are keeping him from achieving the american dream. >> we have to re-evaluate and see how we'll pay for it, the house and the student loan debt. and make sure that we are okay as a family so we can bring kids into the world, because they cost money. >> reporter: according to a survey by fanny mae 90% of millennials wish to own a home. 30% under the age of 35 do.

that's down from 42% in 2007, and the lowest level in 198 it when the agency tracked home ownership by age. the home ownership rate for the group was as high as 46.3% in 2004. >> the condos... >> real estate expert mark bloom is aware of the challenges the brookings and others face. >> we have student debt issues, and the fact that banks are a lot more - a lot less liberal with what they are giving out in terms of loans and what they are looking for in terms of credit. what that borrower has to have is more than what the millennial can clear. they haven't had the time to earn that money. according to ploom, millennial's inability to purchase homes could create a shift that could hurt the recovery of the real estate market and slow the appreciation of homes that are on the market. >> it could stall the market.

okay. it can have consequences. >> according to ploom, to make the dream of home ownership attainable - pay down the debt, pay on time and save. >> markus is all ears. he and his wife like to entertain guests. >> in order to use the rest room, you have a dry run. no privacy. >> although it may take time, he's hopeful in hearing that home ownership doesn't have to be out of his reach. there may be relief on the horizon for college deprads struggling to pay off student loans. president obama is said to take executive action tomorrow. the white house said he'll announce new steps to lift the burden of crushing debt. it is expected to include an expansion of the 2010 law capping payments at 10%. it's likely to give companies

that service federal loans >> just like you can refinance your mort in, you can lower interest rates. this will let you refinance your student loans, and we pay for it by closing loopholes allowing some millionaires pay a lower tax rate than the working class. that's what we are introducing in coming weeks. >> a choice that is first up in weekend politics. basil, former aid to hillary clinton. and a campaign manager for bob turner, and national campaign manager in 2012. thank you for being here. let's talk about the bowe bergdahl exchange. what do you make of the timing of this, and is it something that only a lame duck sitting president will do? >> i don't think it's something only a laim duck president would

do. i think it would send a bad message if he did not bring him home. as commander in chief you have to bring your soldiers home. the difference is he did not go to congress and talk about it. this is part of what the president said. he'd use executive privileges, power to make the unilateral decisions. i think it would have been a good opportunity to give the republicans on the committee credit for doing this. but at the end of the day you can't leave them over there, you have to bring them home. >> he said "look, i'll take advantage of my power", do you think it was right to bypass congress. >> it was wrong. he's the commander in chief. i'm a former officer in the military. i was in the u.s. army, a private in the army. i spoke to people in the military. they feared their hives if they went overseas. if you were a doctor in afghanistan, and you were one of less than 10,000 troops and you helped people in the

communities, your life is threatened because you are now a target to be kidnapped and betrayeded for the prisoners in gitmo right now. this is an issue of gitmo, more than bringing somebody home. the president has used his campaign pledge of closing gitmo to break-in someone home. we leave no one behind. dianne fienstein agrees with you too and goes against the president saying she's a democratic senator and the president was wrong. >> he crossed the line by not bringing it to congress, but was right in leaving no man behind. >> he was wrong trading five president from git no. they will negotiate in another way, they should have said "you give our man back", and then figure out what to do about

gitmo. >> even the new york press talks about what they'll do, learning yoga and opening a honey and milk farm. >> you're laughing. >> you're not buying t. >> they said they'd leave gitmo and kill americans. i take the point where he said you don't trade prisoners for your friends. i take the point and agree that this is part of a larger strategy na it you don't close gitmo, this is something you do in its place. i still think that it's an important thing to do, because as we said and agree, you don't leave anybody behind. i don't know what the circumstances are, but again, i think dianne fienstein has the right point. >> who are our friends. you can't trade prisoners with friends when you have no friends on the other side and the war is ongoing. they have not put down their arms and said "we won't come after americans." >> let's talk about others left behind. the student debt that obama is talking about, endorsing

elizabeth warren's 2010 plan. what do you make of that. should had be the president's nest big frontier. >> it will be interesting. as a candidate. this is a beautiful thing. contingent is important. they do tend to minimise debt. they would say historically we have more people going to college, but not as many finishing. this is an important policy to help people to not just get package to go to school, but stay in school. how important is this? is this a big chance? >> it pretends some additional activity for the group. from a policy perspective it's good. this is the president following through on a - indicating policy

initiatives for those that got him in the office. >> is he doing it the right way. >> he's doing it the wrong way. he's doing executive. this president has gotten everything wrong. you may agree with that. they won't say it on air. >> he is using executive order number one. i'm paying student loan for masters at ny 2 in real estate. you talked about getting education. in that arena, we have to make sure he works with the others. he's not doing that. he's doing it by executive order. ism he can't work with others. he stopped him. >> bill clinton worked well with others. this president doesn't work well with others. >> you think that's on him, not congress. the particular resistance to the

president. >> democratic operatives tell us whether it's on air, off the air and the president is closing himself on and off the team. what he is not doing is meeting with other people. he's not meeting with leadership and didn't do that when he showed up in washington. she's trying to do it one -- he's trying to do it one on one, one day, six or eight months later. it's too little too late. >> he might be referring to me. i think the president doesn't like to engage in day-to-day politics. and there may be racial issues. democrats like the fact that he's understanding the power of his office and using the democratic power. something i would like him to have done a few years before when he saw the bottle neck coming. it happened with the student loans finally we get progress and we'll see if it sticks. staying on the white house, hillary clinton is coming out with a memoire on tuesday, and

in new poll numbers 60% of americans think she's honest and trustworthy and 67% consider her a strong leader, with a book release showing up on the cable news shows, is this her coming out party. >> you used to work for her. you know her better than i have or will. i don't think she's running for president. i said that six months ago. i think she wants to be queen or king maker and be powerful. i'll be glad when the book tour is. it's getting tiring to wonder if she's running. the book tour has been leaked, chapter after chapter. i'll be clat when it's done. >> what do you think, admiral? >> a lot of colleagues that used to work with her, we are unsure. we want to make sure that if she wants to run, it's because she wants to run, and we'll be there

to support her. i don't think that this is laying the ground work for a presidential run. i do think what it will do is re-establish itself as a candidate of experience. especially after the last eight years people are starting to think about the experience factor. it was a mutually exclusive choice. i think you can have both, and i think she will re assert the book. but say "look, i need to talk to the millennials." i need to talk to parts of the party and independence, a sense of buyers' remorse from the last election. she and her husband are brilliant. i look forward to what the next couple of months will bring. i'll be ready to work for her if she's ready to go.

>> you know how to read it. >> before we go, we go to the other side of the aisle. we saw tea party challenger chris mc-daniel finish ahead of tad cochrane, who is the incumbent. what does this say that a tea party candidate can upset a 6-term incumbent. >> i see you looking at me. >> i was looking at you too. >> tea party is a grass roots effort that is well organised and are excited about coming out to vote. that's a major thing. i think the run-off will be interesting. there's a situation, it's an open primary. democrats have a choice. when they vote do they vote for that'd cochrane, and he will win the raise and a general head to head crays for will the democrats say "i'm going to vote for a tea partier, because i

want them to go against and do something." some are staying out of the race. as far as the primary goes. >> is that a smart decision? >> for the democrats publicly to say that. >> the fact that cochrane is reaching out to democrats and ipp depends i think por tends some talking points or narrative positioning or rethinking of their ideology going into the midterms and 2016. you cannot have the tea party holding up the progress that the rest of the republican party is trying to do. it seems like they are going through - the republicans are going through their own ideaogical partnership. it's a national party. i think cochrane reaching out says we have to moderate a little bit. we have to get reasonable candidates out of the primary to have a chance of taking the

white house in 2016. >> it's the politics. if you run a race, it's only republicans that you will go after. you may have a tougher race. the democrats went to vote in the primary. you have a reb can with no other democrat and you say come out and vote. i'm the one you want in washington. if you don't vote you'll get the other guy. >> this is an interesting way for them to say look, we'll have new faces in the typical political scene. gentlemen, thank you so much. former aid to senator hillary clinton, and reb can strat gift -- republican strategist. it is the crown jewel of the u.k. and one of the trendiest cities in the bowler. experts -- world, but the parties warne that london is -- warn that london is losing its charm. >> reporter: what is it that defines a world-class city -
